Among the store’s other unique features aew fresh sushi made daily, breakfast sandwiches, hot oatmeal and hot soup.

Additionally, shoppers will encounter more than 3,000 of the most-purchased Giant and national-brand grocery items. Giant To Go will also provide snacks and other customary beverages for customers to buy when they stop to get gas and redeem their Gas Extra Rewards points.
